Hello everyone, welcome to our 2nd Presidents Blog entry. It is our hope to give you something to think about, whether you agree or disagree with the positions we have taken, we welcome your comments.
Right now we are in a place in our country where our state and federal governments are struggling with budget deficits. It does not really matter whether you are a Republican or a Democrat; this situation was really created by both political parties. Democrats are unwilling to cut spending, and Republicans are unwilling to raise taxes. So here we sit with a budget deficit here in the State of New Hampshire. When you look across the country, our budge deficit is not as bad as some other states. In the zeal to balance the budget, our leaders in Concord have to understand that it is not just a slash and burn proposition. For every dollar that is cut at a state level, we have to make sure that the burden is not just passed down to county and local governments. Aid to towns and school districts are important funding. This aid helps educate our children, helps us to keep our roads in good shape which makes our communities attractive for new business.
So to our officials in Concord, make sure that the spending cuts are thoughtful, and don’t burden our local communities.
